- Description
A harried police detective sits at his computer with a huge stack of 'recent homicides' beside him. A colleague hands him a dossier entitled 'Crewe murders 1970' and tells him that he has orders from above to drop what he is doing and work on the Crewe case. A senior investigator has been appointed to "conduct a thorough analysis and assessment" of the Crewe homicide file in an endeavor to answer questions raised by Rochelle Crewe, who was 18 months old when her parents, Harvey and Jeannette, were murdered in their Pukekawa farmhouse south of Auckland in 1970. Rochelle Crewe broke her silence in the Herald to call for the police to re-open the case 40 years after her parents Jeannette and Harvey Crewe were murdered. Arthur Allan Thomas was twice convicted of the Crewes' murders but was pardoned in 1979 after serving nine years in prison and no one else has been charged. Thomas has welcomed news the police will review the 40-year-old murder case, but is not expecting much to come from it. (NZ Herald - 21 October 2010)
